How do I send a parameter to a Console Application

[5te4lthX]

I created a Console Application, with a Sub Main(Byval str As String), and when I run the debugger I get the following error:

Error 1 No accessible 'Main' method with an appropriate signature was found in ...

Also I'd like the solution to my problem to apply not only to the debugger, but also to the .exe file that will eventually be created.

Also, I found the following code on the internet, but I don't understand how to send the parameter in still.

Public Sub Main()
 
MsgBox Command$,vbOk, "Command Line params"
 
End Sub

Do I have to open cmd.exe, type: programname.exe -parameter 'Or something of that sort?

Thanks
